I'll jump on this one. Are you sure you have it hooked up right electrically? If so maybe your kill switch is bad? Do you have the original? Our M was doing the same thing once and it turned out the kill switch was allowing current to pass through it even after it was pressed in. Could also be the idle mixture is set to lean. If that isn't the problem it is oil or carbon in the combustion chamber causing hot spots. You can get this stuff called Seafoam to help clean that out without pulling the head. It's the same stuff as the GM top end cleaner they use on fuel injected motors. This is good stuff for getting carbon and junk out of a motor. Follow the instructions on the can. Usually put about 1/2 a can in a full tank, and pour some into the carb inlet while the motor running for about a minute (it's going to smoke like nobodies business so do this outside) and then pour just enough to kill it after a minute. Wait 5 minutes and restart and let it run. Again going to smoke like nobodies business. If that makes a difference I recommend flooding it out again in a day or two because there is probiably stuff still in it.
